According to the criteria, the IRC's primary goal is to facilitate the development of joint projects between a group of university faculty members and a group from the business world.
Its duties will include choosing research topics, especially those pertinent to the local area, identifying possible research issues for business and academia, and looking into funding options for the study, among other things.
Additionally, it advises developing a "cluster of universities and industries" at the state level, driven by regional centers of state or federal authority.
According to the UGCC standards, "Each cluster may develop a technology-centric mechanism to capture the local problems and then assign the same as projects to the students based on the infrastructural cum human expertise available at the host institute of a student." The rules encourage the collaborative development of new technologies in academic institutions' or universities' research labs in order to facilitate technology transfer. The rules also make it easier to involve professors of practice in facilitating collaboration between academic partners from the industry.
